BF265T4E024 LOVATO MAXI 4P CONTACTOR 450A AC1 24-60VAC/20-60VDC
MPN: BF265T4E024
Why Choose the BF265T4E024?
Designed for high-current switching, the Lovato BF265T4E024 four‑pole contactor delivers reliable control in demanding installations. With an AC/DC coil rated 24…60VAC / 20…60VDC and AC1 Ith of 450 A, it suits heavy-duty power distribution. At 400 V AC3 it handles 265 A (132 kW), giving robust motor control performance. Screw mounting simplifies panel integration and supports secure, long-term operation.
Built to international standards, this BF265 series contactor provides Ui of 1000 V and Uimp of 8 kV, plus a mechanical life of 5,000,000 cycles. Operating from -40 to 70 °C and up to 3000 m altitude, it is ready for harsh environments. Conformity includes IEC/EN/BS 60947-1/-4-1, UL and CSA, ensuring assurance in UK industrial applications.
